I've had 4 hondas. All were bought used.
Honda 1 was in the shop constantly. I've never even heard someone tell stories about having a car as unreliable as that one was.

Honda 2 self destructed right after I had a new alternator put in. The thermostat gauge was dead center when the car was running but that didn't stop it from over-heating to the point that it cracked the engine. totaled.

Honda 3 I wrecked with 220,000 miles on it. Ran like a top...right into that telephone pole.

Honda 4... see honda 1. Well, not that bad. but very frustrating.

I did have a Toyota tercel that wouldn't die though. that thing defined reliablity.

My point is, you could get a reliable honda and have it end up like my #'s 1, 2, or 4. All of which sound worse or equal to what you are dealing with. So yeah, sell it and get a tercel <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
